Fatigue, Dizziness, Nausea, Headache, Sore Throat. On Remodelling House,found Traces Of Presence Of Rodents. Possible Hantavirus?

Hi, We are in the process of gutting and remodeling an 83 year old house on a lake in MA. I have been feeling fatigued, dizzy, nauseous, headaches, throat feels tight and sore. We found rodent (chipmunk) I believe, droppings in the insulation in a lot of different areas of the house. Is it possible I could have Hantavirus?
